The Summer Checklist

Each girl created a list of things they wanted to do this summer. Today we began making some check-marks. The first thing on Natalie's list was to go to the yellow slide park. I have a feeling we're going to be expanding on their lists. We can probably achieve most of their summer to do's in a week. With all this free time, the sky is the limit!

The Full Weekend

It's the end of a three day weekend (after our summer has officially begun) - and I'm just getting around to typing. That's the sign of a good, eventful weekend.

We had a rib party yesterday. I had time to make my girls a full, hot breakfast! We swam. We biked. We had just a great busy weekend. 

A few words and a few photos is all I have tonight. I might actually put myself up to another photo challenge this summer. Taking pictures to document my days might be more reliable than my words as I know this summer will just fly by. 

Some pics...

 

Let Summer Begin!

Today was Sydney's last day of Kindergarten. And let me tell you, these kids went out with a bang. Their school, among hundreds (more?) of other schools entered a Dannon yogurt contest at the beginning of the school year to win a new playground. And out of schools across the country, Sydney's school won!!! So today Dannon put on a huge party for the kids. We're talkin' bouncy this, water-slide that, all the snack food you can eat, face painting, vertical bungee cords, hamster balls and more! It was a par-tay! If that wasn't enough, the kids also got a classroom party this afternoon. I hope they don't expect this kind of gig every year. 

Here are some last day of school/party photos. Luckily Syd has the summer to catch up on her sleep. It's been a very eventful year!
